NEW YORK -- The Baltimore Ravens game at the Pittsburgh Steelers will remain on Sunday night Nov. 18. Week 11 is when flexible scheduling kicks in, allowing the NFL to move a more appealing matchup into prime time if need be. But with the rival Ravens (6-2) and Steelers (5-3) again battling for the AFC North title, NBC is keeping the game. The league said Monday that the Indianapolis Colts trip to play the New England Patriots, matching quarterbacks Andrew Luck and Tom Brady, would move from 1 to 4:25 p.m. EST on CBS that weekend.

MONTREAL -- The wife of former Canadian boxing champion Arturo Gatti says the stunning findings of a private probe into his death dont change her opinion he killed himself. A privately funded investigation by a panel of forensic evidence experts concludes the former junior welterweight champion was murdered two years ago in Brazil. The report was released in New Jersey on Wednesday, one day after the beginning of a civil trial in Montreal that will determine who inherits Gattis multimillion-dollar fortune. Gatti was 37 when he was found dead at a vacation home in July 2009 in the Brazilian seaside resort of Porto de Galihnas. His widow, Amanda Rodrigues, was categoric on Wednesday that her husband took his own life. "Youll have to wait for the second autopsy but I know it was (a suicide)," Rodrigues told a crush of reporters at the Montreal courthouse. "It would be easier for me to explain to myself that it wasnt a suicide but Im positive it was." The results of the second autopsy, done in Quebec, have not been released. The New Jersey report came after a 10-month investigation that was initiated to challenge the official version that Gatti committed suicide. "This case must be reopened if authorities in Brazil have an iota of moral, ethical and legal concern for their reputation," said noted forensic pathologist Cyril Wecht, who termed the version produced by the initial criminal investigation "pure, unadulterated fiction." Brazilian authorities initially considered Rodrigues a prime suspect and arrested her, but released her soon after and concluded Gatti had hanged himself with a handbag strap. Eduardo Trindade, a lawyer assisting Gattis family, said Wednesday he would have the panels report translated and presented to prosecutors in Brazil within the next month or two and would push for Rodrigues to be indicted. While no one at Wednesdays news conference in New Jersey explicitly accused her of being involved in murder, several speakers stopped just short. "If she was there alone, who committed the homicide?" said Paul Ciolino, a Chicago-based investigator hired by Pat Lynch, Gattis former manager. "He was murdered because he had some dough. Its the oldest motive in the world." Rodrigues is involved in a legal battle with Gattis family over her late husbands fortune, estimated at $6 million by Ciolino. The possible impact of the findings on the civil trial is unclear but they have not been submitted as exhibits. An attempt by Gattis family to delay the start of the trial to have a look at the findings was denied by Justice Claaudine Roy last week.dddddddddddd. Carmine Mercadante, a lawyer representing the Gatti family at the civil trial, said he had no comment on the New Jersey results. "Im not going to comment on that because I have a civil case over here and it wouldnt be fair," he said. Mercadante said he will not appeal Roys decision and will look at the New Jersey report to determine whether he can do anything else. Rodrigues dismissed the results of the private probe because it was paid for by Lynch. She said shed wait for the release of a news documentary into her husbands death being conducted jointly by television networks in the United States and Canada. "Im sure theyre going to say the right thing because theyre not being paid by me or the other side," Rodrigues said. The trial continued Wednesday with friends of Gatti describing the couples relationship. At the centre of the debate is the validity of two wills with different beneficiaries. Lawyers for the Gatti family claim the boxer did not understand a 2009 will, drawn up weeks before his death. It leaves everything to Rodrigues. They argue that a previous will -- a copy of which has not been found -- is valid and leaves the fortune to his family. Back in New Jersey, the team of experts used crime scene photos, interviews and autopsy reports as well as computer-generated simulations to challenge the official version on numerous fronts. A severe laceration on the back of Gattis head couldnt have happened during a fall to the floor, and the position he was found in, with his head halfway wedged under a cabinet, was not consistent with a hanging, they said. In addition, the handbag strap he allegedly used wasnt strong enough to hold 78 pounds for more than a few seconds, far shorter than the several hours alleged by police based on interviews with Rodrigues. The laceration was caused by a blunt instrument and could have incapacitated Gatti before he was strangled, Wecht said. Two hand towels covered with blood, presumably from the head injury, were never tested by Brazilian authorities, according to Brent Turvey, an Alaska-based forensic scientist. The Italian-born, Canadian-raised Gatti developed a large following in New Jersey, where he lived and trained beginning in the early 1990s. Nicknamed "Thunder," he fought some of his most memorable fights at Atlantic Citys Boardwalk Hall, including a trilogy of slugfests with fellow 140-pounder Micky Ward beginning in 2002 that endeared him to fans. Some of those bouts played on TV monitors on the walls of Global Boxing Gym during Wednesdays news conference. ' ' '
